Bumble - affectionate young soul ready to buzz with joy
What makes Bumble particularly endearing is how she actively seeks out human attention and affection. She's not a cat who merely tolerates interaction - she genuinely enjoys it, craving the fuss and companionship she's clearly been missing during her time on the streets. Her playful character suggests a cat who will bring energy and joy to her forever home, entertaining her family with her antics while also being wonderfully cuddly when it's time to settle down.
Bumble will spend nine weeks raising her kittens after they're born, then be spayed and ready for rehoming around mid-May. At that point, she'll finally be able to focus on her own happiness rather than her babies' needs. She's suited to indoor living or homes away from busy roads, and would do well with older children who can appreciate and respect her affectionate but playful nature. Her adaptability and sweet temperament make her an ideal family companion.
Bumble is not yet available for adoption as she prepares for and raises her final litter, but we're accepting expressions of interest from families ready to give this lovely girl the permanent, loving home she deserves. After motherhood ends, Bumble can finally discover what it means to be young, playful, and cherished - to receive all the fuss and affection she so readily gives, and to never have to face uncertainty alone again. She's been surviving - now she deserves to thrive.
Our Rehoming Process
Application & Appointment
Step One
Step Two
Home Check
After this, we will arrange an appointment with you to pick up your new friend, as well as the required food and litter which is available to purchase at our on-site shop.
Rehoming
From the initial appointment to collection usually takes between 7-10 days. When you come to collect your new cat(s), you will just need to sign the relevant paperwork, as well as paying the donation fee via our website. Prior to release all cats will have the necessary vaccinations and medical treatments - all signed off by our vet.
Step Three
Rehoming Rules
- We will not rehome an adult cat into a home where there are existing adult cats.
- We won't home single kittens without another cat present. Rehoming a single kitten doesn't meet welfare standards as it will have no social interaction with other cats. This means that if you already have an adult you can have one kitten. If you don't have an adult cat, you can take an established adult cat or two kittens.
- We ensure that no cat or kitten is released to its new home until 48 hours after its vaccination.
- If there are other pets in the household i.e. dogs, we will normally recommend a kitten unless we have an adult cat who is used to living with dogs. Dogs are able to come to the Sanctuary to be introduced to the cat.
- All existing cats in any household must be neutered.
- All cats and kittens that leave Woodlands Animal Sanctuary must leave with the food and litter that they are currently using here, this can be purchased from our onsite shop.
